Yan Three was overjoyed when he was taken away by the guards.
There was no other reason. He had survived.
As long as he survived, he would have a chance to take revenge. He would have a chance to kill Zhou Qing and then Du Qi.
There was still a chance for all of this.
Yan Three happily followed the army and soon arrived at the county town of Fushan County. There were countless people gathered on both sides of the road. Many citizens were here to watch the show.
The citizens cheered and were happy that Yan Three had been killed.
Fushan County was safe now.
Zhou Qing was not in a good mood. He should have been happy that he had killed Yan Three and taken over Dahuang Mountain. However, after talking to Yan Three, he felt uncomfortable. He could not figure it out.
When he thought about Du Qi's identity, he felt even more frustrated. When he thought about how Du Qi might deal with him and how Du Qi might have other plans, Zhou Qing felt uncomfortable.
However, Zhou Qing suppressed his emotions and went straight back to the county yamen.
Yan Three, on the other hand, was sent to the county jail.
Yan Three's jail was located at the innermost part of the county. It was a single cell. Although he was now a prisoner, Yan Three didn't show any signs of panic on his face. Instead, he looked relaxed and carefree.
He was very relaxed.
Being able to survive was the greatest gift of all.
Surviving meant that he had a chance.
Yan Three waited in the jail. When it was almost noon, his food was delivered. After eating, Yan Three leaned against the corner to rest.
He closed his eyes and thought about his next step.
While Yan Three was resting with his eyes closed, time passed by slowly. When it was almost five in the afternoon, the head of the prison came to Yan Three's cell. He opened the lock and entered. He sat down and said respectfully, "Master, I am here."
The head of the jail was called Yang Cheng. He was someone Yan Three had placed in the jail.
Yan Three had been in Dahuang Mountain for many years. He was not unprepared. Now that he was in jail, Yan Three did not panic at all because Yang Cheng was in the jail.
Yan Three said in a low voice, "Do you still recognize me?"
Yang Cheng said, "Master, what are you talking about? I will only recognize you in my entire life. In this prison, and in the yamen of Fushan County, no one looked up to someone like Xiao Ren. It was only when the Great Master gave the order that this lowly one felt that there was hope. "
Yan Three had a bright smile on his face as he said, "Good. You are indeed worthy of my respect. I've already placed you in the county jail and asked you to keep a close eye on them. "
Yang Cheng said, "It's all because the First Master is wise."
Yan Three said, "You've been in prison for many years. Have you mastered it in this prison? "
Yang Cheng nodded and said, "Don't worry, First Master, the prison is already under my control. Right now, this prison can rebel at any time. "
Yan Three shook his head and said, "It's impossible for you to start a rebellion with just these few soldiers. Tell me, where are the people of the Great Desolate Mountain locked up? "
"They're all in the prison," said Yang Cheng. "But there are more than 400 people in the prison. That's because they can only detain so many people. Some of them should be detained in the barracks. "
Yan Three said, "There are more than 300 people. That's enough."
After pausing for a moment, Yan Three continued, "Next, we just need to wait. When the sky turns dark, release everyone. We'll charge into the yamen and kill Zhou Qing. Then, we'll go to the Du Family and kill Du Qi as well. "
"Then, our mission will be accomplished."
"If we kill an official and start a rebellion, the imperial court will definitely investigate."
"So, after we take over Fushan County, we'll take all the food, equipment, and weapons and send them to the Great Desolate Mountain. We'll still rely on the Great Desolate Mountain to defend it."
Yan Three said, "The imperial court doesn't have any soldiers. When the time comes, we can use the Great Desolate Mountain to resist the imperial court. We'll still be the free bandits of the Great Desolate Mountain. "
Yang Cheng exclaimed in admiration, "First Master is wise!"
Yan Three said, "Alright, go and make the arrangements. Tell your men to prepare themselves and make sure everything's done properly. We can only move quickly after the sky turns dark. "
"Yes!"
Yang Cheng quickly went to make the arrangements.
There were eight men under his command. Not all of them would guard the prison together. They would take turns to guard the prison. After all, someone had to watch the prison 24 hours a day. They couldn't relax at all.
Hence, they had to take turns to rest.
Yang Cheng gave the order and asked everyone to make the preparations. Not long after the news spread, Meng Jiuyou received the news that Yan Three was going to take action at night.
As the deputy of Fushan County, Meng Jiuyou naturally had his own sources of information.
There were also spies in the prison.
Although Yang Cheng was the head of the prison, he commanded everyone. However, Meng Jiuyou's men were enough to keep an eye on everything in the prison.
When Meng Jiuyou received the news, he didn't dare to waste any time. He immediately went to Du Qi's residence to visit him. When he saw Du Qi in the study, he bowed and greeted him, "Mister Du!"
Du Qi said, "Deputy Meng, Zhou Qing has returned to the yamen and is full of himself. He really thinks too highly of himself. Why are you looking for me now? "
Meng Jiuyou said, "Mister Du, after Zhou Qing brought his men back to the city, he didn't deal with the bandits in the Dahuang Mountain. Instead, he detained Yan Three and the 400 bandits in the prison. "
"Coincidentally, the head of the prison, Yang Cheng, is Yan Three's spy."
"Yan Three has already instructed Yang Three to attack the yamen at night. After taking over the yamen, Yan Three will turn his men around and deal with Mister Du. "
Meng Jiuyou said, "Now that we know the news, we should make preparations."
Du Qi smiled, "Indeed, we should make preparations."
His eyes sparkled as he said, "Deputy Meng, what we need to do now is to watch the show. We will wait for Yan Three to rebel at night and use him to deal with Zhou Qing. Then, we will wait for Zhou Qing to come to my residence and kill him. "
Meng Jiuyou said, "Mister Du is right."
Du Qi said, "I already know the plan. You can go back now. I will make the arrangements. "
Meng Jiuyou nodded again before he stood up and left.
Du Qi called Mordor over and asked Mordor to make the arrangements. After all, Yan Three had hundreds of bandits under his control. If they went crazy in the city, they would be extremely vicious. By then, more and more people would come and cause a commotion.
What Du Qi needed to do now was to ensure victory at night no matter what.
The entire residence was heavily guarded.
Mordor thought that everything was done. Then, he came to Du Qi's side and said, "Your Majesty, everything is ready. Actually, if you want me to say it, we can just kill Yan Three directly. Then, we can kill Zhou Qing. Things will be very easy. "
"Wrong!"
Du Qi shook his head and said, "Not everything can be solved by killing. Killing can be used and it is necessary. The problem is that it can't be solved by killing. "
Mordor was confused.
He did not know what was going on.
Du Qi waved his hand. Mordor did not say anything and went to make the arrangements.
